[Paddlewise] Crossing Eddyline Question

I learned to moon the current when crossing an eddyline.  Good enough.  But
I get confused about which side to brace on.  If you don't moon enough the
current wants to flip you to the upstream side.  You are tempted to brace
hard upstream to prevent going over that way.  But you are supposed to brace
on the downstream side.  It takes too long to think this through when I need
to.

Any suggestions.

Jerry
